BMW R 1250RT (2019)

The 2019 BMW R 1250RT is a tourer that embodies the ultimate riding experience, where power, comfort, and style converge. Underpinned by the new ShiftCam engine generation, this bike boasts a closed-loop three-way catalytic converter and Euro 4 compliance.

Its sleek design features a distinctive Alpine White finish, contrasted with Silver metallic wheels and Aluminium Silver metallic drive train. The central fuel tank cover and knee cover are painted in Slate Dark metallic matt, while handlebar weights, windshield trim element, and brake calipers add a touch of contrasting black. The Option 719 Spezial variant introduces a new level of luxury, with blue or sparkling storm metallic body colours, chrome elements, and a brown seat upgrade.

The R 1250RT’s flat-twin boxer engine, a stalwart of BMW Motorrad’s heritage, has been reimagined with 4-valve technology and e-gas throttle control, delivering an unparalleled riding experience that combines the thrill of adventure with the comfort of long-distance touring.
